Challenger Candy Crane

Recommended Posts

Any one know if the vend price or the play til you win mode can be changed? I may pick one up but I dont want to be locked in a quarter and would like to make it skill. I cant seem to find a manual on the net.

I am picking up 2 this weekend. They are both very good looking. Complete with locks keys and even some spare parts. One works fine but the seller cant get the other to work. But he has the manual so I will play with it and see what I can do.

AGE Challenger Candy Crane - Does anyone have the manual for this? Anywhere I can download it from? I have the AGE Snack Attacker, but these look to be the exact same except for the shell. Hoping to find the manual as I have several things I want to see on this crane, but since AGE is gone no one maintains the support for them anymore.

Thanks,

Tom W.

S&b candy and toys has the parts try them they probably have manuals too. The only thing I liked about these cranes they are built like a tank. I put one in an outside location. Other than that they have some weird design flaws

This is a more depressing post for me, seems after I was here last I crawled deeper into what was wrong with my crane,

It powers up, rope light flash and make steady noise/sound,

will not register a coin, but the led credit and timer is on zero,

I have the one large circuit board in the trap door that looks okay BUT looking in from the coin box up under the left side is a smaller board, hanging upside down, it had the controls for sound and rope speed BUT one of the large capacitors (?) had what looked like a brown drop hanging off it at first I thought perhaps candy syrup but I removed the board and the capacitor had popped, the drop of brown I guess was some sort of oil or resin from in it, one lead was off the board and the other broke loose easy,

making things worse an IC chip near that had green patina growing on it's leads,

So I fear just replacing that blown part may or likely will not help my problems,

So I hate to call my crane inop junk, it's otherwise in good shape and prewtty darn cool, with the very limited info on these I highly doubt that board is something I can buy a replacement for or at a price that isn't many times what the crane is worth.

Curious could this challenger crane be upgraded by installing the brains from some other crane in it, seems the boom/claw part is similar to most cranes.

So while I still want the manual I now need to figure out what are my options if any to get her working again.
